iPad/iPhone/Micro USB Charger to DIN

I had seen some recommendations here a while ago on something like this, but haven't been able to find it again.


I am looking for a way of charging (or just keep running) my iPad (new connector type) and a WiFi hotspot device (Micro USB), and ideally my iPhone 5, while in the tank bag - using the BMW power outlet (DIN?). I have found sdapters for both the iPhone and micro USB, but none that could charge multiple devices at once. Does anyone make anything like this?


Thanks.
 
I tried that sort of kludge and found it not totally reliable. Things come unplugged. And it's not weatherproof.

IMHO - a better alternative, and he's an MOA member: http://burnsmoto.com/usb-power-socket-weatherproof.php

It can be easily tie-wrapped to the frame of the bike, then a simple USB to mini-USB cord up to the tankbag with his USB cord waterproof bootie on the end in the weather.
